WHY CHOOSE SKIATHOS The beauty of Skiathos is extended everywhere, and in order to get to know it, you need to read about it page by page as if it were a novel by Alexandros Papadiamantis. These pages have been imprinted in our magazine, but as there is always the "risk" that you will not have the time to see them all during your vacations, I will briefly tell you five things that explain why I consider Skiathos to be unique…

1 2 3 4 5

Because Nature gave to it a large dowry. An impressive coastal variety with 65 beaches; you will not know which one is worth to visit first. The southern ones are calm, with shallow crystal clear waters, which attract most people. At the northern ones, you think you are in the coasts of northern Africa, with the glance being filled by a deep blue-electric blue color, which is lost in the vastness of the Aegean. On the other hand, green reaches the sea, with the forests of Skiathos having been characterized as "Aesthetic". They are a unique case in our country, since it is the only island, 30,000 stremmas of which (in a total of 47,000 stremmas) are filled with forests.

These include wetlands, lakes, and an organized network of paths, about 200 km long, to explore and to enjoy unique experiences.

Because the works of people keep history alive. With impressive monuments, such as the medieval Castle and the Monastery of Virgin Mary of the Annunciation (Evangelistria), with small and humble monasteries and many chapels, which are found dispersed in every corner of the island, having their doors wide open to visitors, in order to get in and worship, to feel the peace and the uplift of the soul, as the flame of the candle is flickering… With the ruined mills, the oil presses, the old huts and the shipyards, that carry within them a big part of the island's history.

With hidden treasures, which are worth looking for, such as the old cobbled road that connected the Castle with the town, and was the unique communication road, with proposals for exploration, such as the Cave of the "Murderess", the beacon at Pyrgi and so many others…

Because there are no “cliches” here. With the exception of "Mamma Mia", which is still played at the summer cinema, the entire activity in the island is diverse, authentic, and pleasantly unpredictable… Imagine that you chill out at a beach e.g., and you hear a voice "May I have your lighter, please?", you turn around and you see Goldie Hawn smiling!! Or that you walking at Papadiamanti Street and meet the Sheikh of Qatar. You go into a bar, and suddenly you become "one" with people who were just a few moments ago unknown to you. An island, which is ideal for everyone, for those who come just for vacations, as well as for those who require high level tourist infrastructures. A nice and interesting "mixing" of situations and people of every social or financial class, who provide to it a unique vividness.

Because it is accessible and easy. It is accessible by sea and air. By ships and flying dolphins that launch from Volos, Agios Konstantinos and Mantoudi of Evoia, and by water taxis from across, from Pelion. By air connection with dense itineraries, from all the big cities of Europe.

Easy in terms of transportation with a dense network of urban itineraries, with private cars and small boats. You can go everywhere quickly without discomfort and delays, something that allows you to see many things in just one day.

Because the people of Skiathos have a strong culture. The community that constitutes the spiritual physiognomy of the island is vivid, resourceful and creative, making its presence noticeable all the time with various activities, and keeping the flame of tradition inextinguishable. Artistic creation makes a booming presence, which "coils" locals and foreigners in the island, by highlighting it with their works.

For these, and many others, Skiathos has so many fanatic visitors, who return again and again, characterizing it fairly "the boomerang island"!

Welcome and have a nice time!

We cannot deny that last year was an "exploratory" year for us, who published the DISCOVER SKIATHOS magazine. However, we were compensated when you, the businessmen and residents of the island, took our hand and congratulated us, and this creative result left both sides satisfied, because the dominant elements were the directness and the trust that you offered us generously. It is common sense for someone to apprehend that in practice, support means capacity for more pages, larger print run, and bigger circulation. The most significant winner out of this is the island, since the recipients of the magazine are multiplied and this also happens proportionately with its potential visitors.

A magazine travels like the daily liner, and approaches many readers, in and outside Greece. DISCOVER SKIATHOS was found in many locations in Greece, in Athens, in Thessaloniki, as well as in tourist destinations and exhibits abroad, since it constituted the jewel of the publication of Sporades.

This year, our scheduled publications began in a winter destination with the publication of DISCOVER ARACHOVA (www.discoverarachova.gr), were continued with the second issue of DISCOVER SKIATHOS, and will be completed with DISCOVER SKOPELOS. For the first time, our neighboring island will be able to show in this way its natural and cultural

wealth. Our immediate plans also include other tourist destinations, putting in this way a little stone in their tourism development.

The magazine you are holding in your hands this year makes the difference, not only with the increased number of pages, but also with the pluralism that surrounds its subjects. We share again this time the result both with the business world that supported our effort very much, and with the residents and the agencies that helped us materialize it. We warmly thank them from this position.

You can get find magazine in Skiathos in the store above the port, and in all the Super Markets of the island, while you can also find it in many businesses and in most hotels. Read it, enjoy it, consult it, because it is your man, the person who will take your hand and guide you around the island.

We wish you pleasant summer vacations, and we renew our appointment for next year with DISCOVER SKIATHOS taking the lead in everyone's heart.

Tourism, the heavy industry of the country, needs knowledge, experience, courage, imagination, investments and initiatives, in order to make a step ahead, aiming to further develop the field. In this direction, the Municipality of Skiathos and the Committee of Tourism Development and Projection promotes and implements all the actions, with the aim to extend the tourist season, as well as the best projection and advertising possible of the island abroad and throughout Greece. However, in order to achieve the best result possible, all bodies, which are involved in the field of tourism, need to collaborate and participate in the effort.

Following the 1st issue of Discover Skiathos, the publication of which enjoyed an impressive welcome both from the people of Skiathos and visitors, and with its presence being strong in international exhibitions, in which bodies and businesses participated, the 2nd issue of the magazine, for the tourist season of 2015-2016, is particularly important, and proves with its rich and renewed topics, that this place hides within it an inexhaustible wealth of interests, both for visitors and for the island's inhabitants. It follows the right path in the effort we also make as a Municipality, and actually proves that with understanding and collaboration we can achieve all the goals that we have set for the further development of tourism.

I wholeheartedly wish every success in the publication of Discover Skiathos, believing that also this year it will enjoy proportionate acknowledgment, and it will contribute to the tourist development of Skiathos.

“Greece, with its thousands of kilometers of coasts, its crystal clear waters, its charming beaches, and the magnificent seabed, is the ideal destination that can satisfy even the most demanding visitor.

Skiathos, the homeland of Alexandros Papadiamantis, is the cosmopolitan island of Sporades, by combining swimming in wonderful beaches, peace, as well as fun.

Culture, antiquities, monuments, arts, environment, climate, sights, excellent tourism infrastructures, Greek gastronomy, are some of the comparative advantages that our country offers, classifying Greece among the top tourism destinations globally.

At every point in insular or continental Greece, the visitor finds something new, something charming. We are certain that the country can offer unequaled positive elements, with people and the quality of life as center, as well as warm Greek hospitality.

In the framework of our national strategy, we aim at the extension of the tourist season with steady steps.

We develop alternative tourism forms, maritime, medical, conference, religious etc., which will contribute decisively, on the one hand to the further establishment of the tourist season's extension, and on the other hand they will benefit parts of our homeland that today are not included in international interest destinations.

Our vision is to make Greece a competitive, contemporary and measurable power, which will successfully face the challenges of the future.

Its cosmopolitan character is obvious, with the yachts, the sailing boats and the luxurious yachts that are lined in its port. The paved pedestrian streets, the tiled white houses, the flowery courtyards, its amphitheatric position, and its picturesqueness will amaze you with the first glance. Chora, the town of Skiathos, is the reference point of the island. It's here where everything begins and where everything ends. Follow us in a walk through the winding streets, and if we get lost, never mind, maybe this is what was supposed to happen!

Chora is amphitheatrically built around a small bay, which is divided in two by the small pine tree peninsula of Bourtzi, with the old port on its left and the new one, leading to the airport, on its right. On its two characteristic hills, you will see the belfries of Virgin Mary of the Lake (Panagia Limnia) to the west and of Saint Nicolas (Ai Nikolas) to the east. The center of the town is crossed by the pedestrian Papadiamanti Street, which intersects with dozens of small streets. Chora is magical, particularly during night time, when it is lit; it has many cute small squares, and offers a wonderful view and a capacity for picturesque walks in its paved alleys and its entire coastal front.

UP AND DOWN PAPADIAMANTI STREET The famous street, which was named after the "saint" of Greek literature, is full of people at all times of day and night. Here, as well as in the alleys to its left and right, almost the entirety of commercial activity is gathered, with significant brands, which increase every year, as well as relaxation spots for a snack, a cup of coffee or a bite. Lower down the street, you will see the sign "House - Museum of Alexandros Papadiamantis", and a visit to the place where the great prose writer lived and died constitutes a pilgrimage every time.

AT THE OLD PORT An ideal spot for a walk, the old port, located between Bourtzi and the district of Plakes, is full of cafes, bars, restaurants, and taverns, for amphitheatric socializing, while on the side of the sea, dozens of small boats are sitting back from their all-day excursions, with their captains "booking" seats with tourists for the next day. Bourtzi is the reference point. The small pine tree peninsula connects the old port with the new one, and within it a significant part of the history of Skiathos is hidden. At the entrance, you will see the monument of the Unsung Skiathian Seaman, the busts of the two Alexanders of the island, Papadiamantis and Moraitidis, the center of the islet is dominated by the neoclassical building that houses the cultural center of the Municipality - where the elementary school used to be - with the summer theater, in which many events are hosted, the old cannons and the embrasures, whereas on its edge, in an idyllic setting, the homonymous cafe is located.

The walk continues by climbing up the "stairs" -with the famous "large cushions" (maxilares)towards the church of the Three Hierarchs (1846), where you can worship the icon of Virgin Mary of the Icons (Panagia Ikonistra), protector of the island, and to the left, through the taverns with a panoramic view to the port. At the edge of the old port, the upcoming meeting point of the area is located, with atmospheric cafes-bars worthily claiming their own share in the preferences of visitors.

FOLLOW THE "FISHBONE" If you really want to enjoy a unique walk, you will have to "disappear" in the cobbled roads, which are located between Papadiamanti Street and the old port. A labyrinthine grid of spotless alleys, next to fragrant yards, which sometimes end at small squares, and other times lead you back where you started from (!), while all kinds of small shops, stores, taverns or bars appear at every turn. The cobbled roads of Skiathos present a unique arrangement: at the center of the street, oblong stones are placed in the shape of a "fishbone" and with an inclination towards the street axis, in order to facilitate the removal of rainwater. On both sides of this arrangement, and, up to the building lines,

the paving of the street is continued with more flat slabs and with apparently less inclination towards the street axis, in order to be distinguished from the central arrangement of stones, like a kind of sidewalks of the era. We recommend that you follow "Moraiti" street -while going upwards Papadiamanti Street, just before the high school, on your left hand- or else the "Big Cobbled Road" as it is called by the locals.

Walking through the tightly built, whitewashed, stone houses, you will pass by the church of the Holy Trinity (Agia Triada), and then by Virgin Mary of the Lake (Panagia Limnia) (1837) with the impressive belfry, while next to it you will see the most "beautiful ruins". It is the house of Mataronas, with a unique architecture, which was built in 1850, and has hosted many personalities, but unfortunately it was destroyed by a fire. If you make a detour towards the right, you will find the area called Plakes, one of the most picturesque districts of the town, and maybe its more authentic part, whereas if you continue following Moraitidi Street, you will find the Three Hierarchs and the old port. Very close to the church of the Three Hierarchs, you will see the Spiritual Center of the Holy Temples of Skiathos, which hosts the folklore exhibition "Alexandros Moraitidis". This is a "cultural" walk that will leave you with the best impressions and a realistic image of Skiathos.

Cafes and restaurants one next to the other, opposite the luxurious private boats, excursion boats and sailing boats, and in the middle the road from where everyone begins and everyone ends -since this is where the main arterial road of the island begins-, in a perpetual, noisy traffic, outline the "urban" side of the town. However, you can walk on the wide sidewalks, making a detour through an uphill cobbled road, leading to the church of Saint Nicolas on the hill, redeeming your breathlessness with the panoramic view of the town that extends in front of you. At the new port, you will also find the taxi stand, while at a short distance, in front of the elementary school, the bus terminal. This is where the ring road begins. If you continue your walk, you will reach the area of "Ammoudia", where many beachfront taverns, the clubs of the area, and the old mill are located, and you will arrive at the beginning of the airport at the area of Ai Giorgis, at "tarsanas" (shipyard) where ships are being repaired, and where you will see the lake, a significant wetland for migratory birds.

IRRESISTIBLE… ANYWAY Noisy and quiet. Touristy and traditional. Calm sea and rough sea at the same time in another beach. Spa at the many-star hotel and "spa" at some small waterfall hidden in the foliages of the plane trees. Decibels and wild dances at the clubs, peace and devoutness at the chapels and the monasteries. The island of cosmopolitan life and the island of exploration. This is Skiathos: incongruous, authentic, and multiform.

Follow us in a brief tour, from end to end…

KÜóôñï / “Kastro”

All around the island "PLANNING ON THE MAP" EXERCISES Skiathos covers an area of 48 sq.km. with a length of 12 km from Kefala cape to the northeast until the Tourkovigla cape to the southwest, and a width of 9 km from Kalamaki cape to the south up to Castro cape to the north. Its 44 km long coastline is surrounded by 65 beaches. It is located between the shores of Southern Pelion (2.4 nautical miles) and Skopelos (4 nautical miles).

Apart from the town of Skiathos, there are no other villages, but only dispersed small settlements, which have been developed mostly at the tourist areas of the island. The south side of Skiathos is the one that enjoys the greater tourist development, and this is due to the numerous beaches, which come one after the other, at the lacey seashores. The remaining area is still natural and offers many opportunities for exploration. The characteristic of the island is the green that covers almost its entire surface.

CHOOSING MANY DIFFERENT PATHS… This is a matter of speech, since there is only one street that most people know, the one that begins from the town, crosses its perimeter, and then passes from all the beaches of its south side in order to end, after 14 kilometers, at Koukounaries. You have three alternatives in order to reach the "inland" and the north areas: the first is the road that you meet at 600m from the exit of the town -from the bus terminal-, and leads to the monastery of Virgin Mary of the Annunciation (Evangelistria), and then to the area of the Castle. The second begins from the area of Vasilias, passes through Agios Antonios, and is connected with the previous one near Agios Konstantinos.

Along this road, you will find dirt roads, which can take you to nice beaches at the

north side, such as Kechria and Lygaries, to the monastery of Panagia Kounistra or even take you back to the central road at the height of Agia Paraskevi (Platanias). The third begins from Troulos to be divided a while after to the one leading to Aselinos beach (to the left) and the one leading to Panagia Kounistra. In all these routes, you will meet several dirt road branches, which serve either as communicating vessels or end up in unexplored places, and then offer an opportunity for hiking.

SOUTH SKIATHOS - THE COSMOPOLITAN PART Here, the island shows directly its strong card, its numerous beaches. Most of them are sandy, organized, with the greenery reaching the sea, easily accessible by very frequent itineraries by public transportation, as well as by boats that leave the old port.

The beaches are only one short distance from one another. We do not want to particularly project any of them, since each has its own special characteristics, and this is why we will mention them by name, beginning from those closer to the town of Skiathos: Megali Ammos, Mytikas, Mikros and Megalos Vasilias, Achladi(e)as, Sklithri, Tzaneria, Kanapitsa, Dama, Vales, Koutsouri, Vromolimnos, Kolios, Agia Paraskevi (Platanias), Poros, Troulos, Maratha, Koukounaries, Ambelakia, Megali and Mikri Banana, Agia Eleni. (Details for all the beaches in pages 78 - 103).

The chain of beaches is supplemented by taverns, restaurants, water sports, beach bars, stores selling summer items, super markets, rooms to rent as well as impressive many-star hotels with dreamy amenities. In a few words, you will not miss anything in

terms of amenities, while you have the opportunity, if you get bored which is not going to happen- in one of them, to "go straight" to the next one!

While at Koukounaries, you should definitely visit Strofilia lake, which is exactly behind the beach, and constitutes a rare wetland for migrating birds, where also swans live (it is the only stone pine wetland that there exists on an island in Greece). The lake is surrounded by a forest and it is an ideal place for walks in a breathtaking scenery, in which you will enjoy the beauty and the peace of nature. At the height of the lake, over the road, a dirt road begins -which then becomes sandy- and crosses a very beautiful pine tree forest, leading to the beaches of Mandraki, Elias and Agkistros at the northwestern side of the island. Walking within it constitutes a unique experience! You can also reach these beaches by following the road that leads to the beach of Agia Eleni, and continues almost ashore, passing through the beach of Kryfi Ammos. You can also take the circular route, and, if you return during sunset (the best view from Agia Eleni), you will fully enjoy it! If you like ridding, in Koukounaries you will find one of the two horse riding clubs that operate on the island.

NORTH SKIATHOS - "WILD" BEAUTY At this part of the island, beaches have an intense exotic element, with crystal clear waters, exposed to the north wind, most of them with no tourism infrastructure with one-two food trucks or taverns. The ideal place for romantic escapes and a small dosage of adventure. Some of them are relatively easily accessible, while in some others you will need to walk -a little or much- in order to get there, with the exception of the famous Lalaria, which can only be reached by sea and if the weather allows it, where we recommend that you "take" a photograph -as souvenir- and not a pebble (if you do not want to pay a fine ranging from 400-1,000 Euros, due to the relative prohibition). We mention them by name, beginning from the one closer to the town, at the east: Xanemos,

The boats that tour around the island pass from all of them, and, indeed, make a stop for swimming at Lalaria, Kastro, and Megalos Aselinos. During this circle you will see the “Cave of the Murderess” (Spilia tis Fonissas) or “the Blue Cave” (Galazia Spilia), the whitewashed church of Agios Alexandros, while at the beach of Kastro you should definitely go uphill to the medieval town, which hides within it a significant part of the history of Skiathos.

You can also reach Kastro by car, following the route for the Monastery of Virgin Mary of the Annunciation (Evangelistria) -at the last two kilometers the road becomes more difficult, and towards the end, paved, narrow, and with sharp downhill turns up to the parking, just above the beach. One of the most significant places that you should visit is the Monastery of Virgin Mary of the Annunciation (Evangelistria), which is famous for the role it played during the years of the Greek Revolution. It is an imposing monastery, and the only one that still operates on the island. It is located 4.5 km north of the town of Skiathos, at the position Agalianos, next to the springs of the stream of Lechouni. From the ring road, about 200m. after the intersection towards the airport, there is a paved road to the right that goes up to the monastery. It is also worth visiting the monasteries of Agios Charalambos, Panagia Kechria, and Panagia Kounistra. (More about the monasteries in pages 158 - 161).

INLAND - AN OPPORTUNITY FOR EXPLORATION The inland of Skiathos is mountainous and its highest peak is Karaflitzanaka (425m.).

Green spreads everywhere with pine trees, plane trees, oaks, olive trees, and huge yews covering most of the surface of the ground. The eye relaxes and the soul calms, while

walking through the stream of Acheila near the monastery of Kechria- with the strange shapes that are formed by tree trunks, listening to the gurgle of the small waterfalls and the birdsong, searching for the dozens of therapeutic herbs that fill the place. Visit the church of Profitis Ilias and rest under the shade of the old plane tree, drinking water from the source, which since 1906 is a reference point and meeting place for the Skiathians.

A large network of dirt roads covers the entire inland, while many marked paths offer an opportunity for wanderings...

If the cosmopolitan life of the island has "tired" you, go for it!

THE SMALL ISLANDS OPPOSITE SKIATHOS There are many small islets around Skiathos, two of which are distinguished.

These are Tsougkria and Arkos. You can reach them with the excursion boats that travel there every day or even by renting a boat. At Tsougkria, you can swim in the beautiful beaches of the island, Agios Floros and Lalarias, see the chapel of Agios Floros, and walk in the wetland, near the ruins of the oil press, while at Arkos you can "slide down" the sand hill that leads to the crystal clear waters!

Review The Guardian, Travel Section 2014: “Probably the best dining in town, if not the Aegean. The Final Step is run by Pam and offers her modern mediterranean twist on local produce: for instance seared scallops with spicy greek sausage”. Find us at the top of the winding steps that lead to the Church of St Nikolas.

Open every evening from 7:00 pm till late.

Even though it is considered to be a new arrival, it is already counting many distinctions and awards at a European level. Tasteful, hospitable, it provides a particular basis to the composition of the menu, and the quality of the ingredients. Greek-Italian with intense Mediterranean influences, it offers to the visitor the opportunity to enjoy an integrated breakfast, lunch or dinner. It is important that the owners of Sea U personally welcome and take care of visitors, offering them a taste of Greek hospitality.

Tip: You can order fresh fish or lobsters at a price per kilo (24 hours before).

Open: from April to October. Working hours: 8.30 - late at night.

Batis is the tavern of a family from Skiathos, which is open throughout the year, offering Mediterranean and Greek cuisine with many recipes from Skiathos. Mrs. Eleni, the owner of the store, makes sure that all ingredients that are used are fresh and local. We recommend that you pick up some appetizers that accompany ouzo, tsipouro or fresh wine.

"Strong" dishes include spaghetti with shrimps, crayfish or lobster. It is located at a cool place with panoramic view to the old harbor, next to the church of Treis Ierarches (Three Hierarchs). Try it once, and you will become its best advertisers.

You can also reach it by car, till further down, but you should be careful with the downhill turn. This is an organized beach, mostly attended by young people, who have a strong presence at the famous Beach bar - restaurant "Bananistas" at the eastern side.

Mikros Aselinos is worth visiting both because it is a beautiful, isolated beach, and for the route in order to go there. Follow the same road as for Megalos Aselinos, but at the intersection, go right heading to the Monastery of Virgin Mary of the Icons (Panagia Iconistra), and then on the dirt road for about 3 km.

In order to reach the beach, you will have to go down a steep, narrow path. You can also go there on foot from Megalos Aselinos (10 minutes of walking). There is a small tavern.

The waters, as they are exposed to the north wind, are crystal clear, while a meal at Argyris' tavern complements the nice excursion. It is also a good opportunity to visit the old monastery of Virgin Mary.

LALARIA TOWN

It is located at the northeastern edge of the island, and it is one of the most beautiful beaches of Greece. The northern wind falls furiously on the steep white rocks, which rise imposingly over the sea, and creates, for millions of years now, the perfectly round, white pebbles, "lalaria", which cover the entire beach. The famous "Trypia Petra" stands as a guard at the edge of the beach. The landscape's wild beauty and the really crystal clear sea will really charm you. You can reach "Lalaria" only through the sea -by boat from the port of Skiathos, daily-, and when the weather allows it. This is a unique experience that you shouldn't miss. The area is secluded, so it is good to have with you everything that you might need.

Tip: We recommend that you "take" a photograph -as souvenir- and not a pebble (if you do not want to pay a fine ranging from 400-1,000 Euros, due to the relative prohibition).

The only time that your privacy will be disturbed is when boats from Skiathos town to Lalaria pass, at a distance of 200m. In order to reach it, follow the route for the Monastery of Evangelistria, but don't turn anywhere until you reach the "Kalyvia" area, where you leave your vehicle and walk through a rough path. It is difficult, but it is worth the trouble!

TSOUGRIAS ISLAND

Lalarias beach

"Tsougrias" island is a must in the preferences of visitors, and it is an uninhabited, virgin island with exotic beauty. It has two big beaches: Agios Floros to your left as you approach the island, and Lalarias to your right, which is the beach where excursion boats moor. In particular, the first beach will enchant you! It was named after the homonymous chapel that lies on a rock at its one side.

There, Giorgos operates his food truck, where you can have something to eat. At Lalarias you will also see part of the wetland of the island, as well as the ruins of the oil press, a reference point of the rich olive oil production of Skiathos in the past.

The city of Newport, of the state of Rhode Island of the U.S.A., was twinned with Skiathos in 1996; however the relationship between the two of them counts more than 140 years, when the inhabitants of Skiathos, who immigrated to the USA, established the Greek Community.

Chrissy Logothetis is the Head of the Newport-Skiathos Club.

Logothetis family is a historical family of Skiathos since the period when the people of Skiathos resided in the Castle.

What made you get involved with the Newport-Skiathos Club?

My father's love for Skiathos is the reason I got involved with the Newport-Skiathos Club.

When I was asked to be chairman of the Newport-Skiathos Club, I was experiencing a difficult time in my life, as my father had recently and unexpectedly passed away. Something tugged at my heart and urged me to accept the opportunity to begin the Newport-Skiathos Club as chairman. My grandparents grew up on the Island of Skiathos. They later immigrated to Newport. When my father had become a young adult, my grandfather advised him to travel with him to Skiathos to marry a woman of Skiathos. And that he did. As a young child, I remember how important it was for my father to visit Skiathos with his family, as often as possible. I never understood my father's love for Skiathos, until my recent trip, this past April.

How strong is the bond between Newport and Skiathos?

My ancestors from Skiathos established the first Greek community in Newport. Since that time, each generation thereafter has contributed in the strengthening of that bond. The past and present leadership from the City of Newport and of the Municipality of Skiathos continue to work on the bond that they share.

Are young Americans keen on learning about Skiathos or visiting it?

This young generation is interesting, as they don't take for granted their Greek heritage. I am impressed that they seem to see it as a gift. They honor their Greek heritage. As a young child, I was not motivated to learn the Greek language. Inversely so, my twelve year old niece attends American school then goes to ballet practice or softball practice as well as attends Greek school. Each night after doing her American School homework, she goes to her grandmother's house to practice her Greek school lesson. I envy the way in which my niece speaks the Greek language so beautifully. She has been putting all of the money she earns in a piggy bank in hopes that she will soon be able to travel to Skiathos.

I would like to share with you one of my experiences from my last visit to Skiathos. I don't believe in coincidences. I believe in serendipity. Serendipity is another way God guides us.

Unknowingly, I had begun a personal journey back in 2013, when I accepted the opportunity to be the chairman of the Newport-Skiathos Club. While in Skiathos this past April, I attended the Good Friday Service at the Panagia Limia Church. During the service, I felt my father's presence. You see, my father died unexpectedly. I never got the chance to say goodbye to him. This was closure for me.

Giorgos Sanidas Prose writer / Economist Giorgos is from Skiathos, but he lives in Thessaloniki, where he teaches creative reading and writing. He has been occupied with literature ever since he was a child, and he has been publishing books since he was a student. He has written two novels about Skiathos, a narrative about Papadiamantis, a treatise, and six plays.

"Skiathos is in the center of my existence. It is the place where I faced the first light; it is the neighborhood, the family home, the parents, the memories from the years of innocence. It is the stable shelter, to which I always return, either physically or spiritually. Skiathos needs balanced, controlled development, where the contemporary and the traditional will co-exist harmonically".

He analyzes these views of his in two projects: An economical, "Research - study for tourism and Skiathos", and a literary, "All is not lost". Giorgos donated the latter to two unions, in order to contribute through its sales to the creation of the Museum of Maritime and Cultural Tradition of Skiathos.

Yvonne Ayoub is a versatile and successful international artist, illustrator and muralist whose work, in a wide range of media, is collected and enjoyed by art enthusiasts worldwide.

London-based in winter, she has been a part-time resident of Skiathos for almost 40 years and throughout the summer months she welcomes guests (professional artists seeking a retreat and art students of all abilities, alike) from all around the globe - to her beautiful island home and art studio, in Kolios, inviting them to experience the rich diversity the island has to offer.

Offering instruction in water colours, acrylics and oil painting techniques herself, both in the studio and en plein air, Yvonne also invites international and local art tutors to share their skills and give master classes in a wide variety of subjects including traditional Byzantine Iconography, Silk painting, Botanical art and Creative writing.

Yvonne firmly believes there an artist within us all just waiting to be discovered and students are guided to find their own artistic voice and individual colour palette. They are constantly surprised by their own ability and the high level of the finished works they manage to achieve.

Visiting Professional artists find Skiathos to be a perfect idyllic retreat in which to find new inspiration and hone their skills - many return year after year.

In her own work, Yvonne sees the capturing of the purity of light that is unique to the Greek islands, as her greatest challenge and she draws constant inspiration from Skiathos' outstanding natural beauty, its crystal clear waters, the vibrant colours of its landscapes and its unique island architecture. Keen to see all of this and the island's cultural heritage preserved, she is an active member of the community and an avid supporter of www.syllogos-skiathos.gr, a local volunteer organisation that works tirelessly on environmental, ecological, cultural, conservation and preservation issues. In 2013 she was honoured with an award for her contribution to the island.

Yvonne's original works are regularly exhibited on Skiathos and in Athens where she is a member of the UNESCO Club for Arts and Science. Prints of her paintings are widely available online and private commissions are welcomed. She is also a keen photographer and active blogger.

Skiathos is about swimming at the beaches, it is about good food, it is about walks along Papadiamanti Street and the port, it is about visits to its historical and spiritual treasures… However, it is also about other things -small or big; it doesn't matter- which you can see or do, and may be "causes" for another trip to the wonderful island!

Both from the old and the new port every morning at 9:3010:00 all kinds of vessels sail for day excursions. Some making the round of Skiathos -with stops for swimming-, others heading to the small islands of Tsougkrias and Arkos, others heading to Skopelos and Alonnisos, and others taking you fishing. It is a nice way to get acquainted with Skiathos and the neighboring area, in a friendly mood. During high season, they are filled with people, and thus it would be good to make a booking from the previous evening.

Several paths of Skiathos have the "sign" of his personal care. He has recorded the most beautiful routes in his book, "Walking in the Paradise of the Aegean".

"Before we settled in Skiathos with my wife, we went to school for three years in Germany in order to learn the Greek language, its dances and its folk songs. Since I have been a hiker all my life, I immediately saw that the island had unique nature and many old paths that had been covered by nature. Thus, I began opening them 10 years ago and I managed to do this in about 50 km -and I keep maintaining them with yellow signs, steps, rails and small bridges at the streams, at my personal expenses-, creating an infrastructure for hiking tourism of 25 hiking routes (a total of 200 km), resulting in more than 1000 people coming every year in order to walk along them. At the same time, I published my book "Walking in the Paradise of the Aegean" in 4 languages.

Hiking is appropriate for all people from 8 to 80 years old, and is the best thing for health. One can hike with their friends, as well as with a guide, while we offer all the routes in the GPS for free. The basic equipment for hikers includes good shoes, a walking stick, a hat, a bottle of water and their cell phone. At the same time, hikers in Skiathos can also win a medal. They should write down 24 of the 25 codes, which they are asked to find somewhere in the middle of each route (tel. +30 6972705416). Until today, 40 medals have been given, with the most -sentimentally- significant being to a couple from England, and they were both over 80 years old! Hiking tourism is a great opportunity for entire Greece. The hiking culture exists in most foreign visitors, mostly in Germans, Austrians, Scandinavians and British. Unfortunately, not so much in Greeks".

The route begins at bus station No. 23 (P1), where the asphalt road on the right leads to the beach of Agia Eleni. From the starting point, we take the central road towards Skiathos for about 800 meters and we turn left at the sign "Xerxes port" (P2). We follow the dirt road, which leads us to a pine tree forest. After half an hour of walking, we reach a tavern, which is located in the woods. We continue and we meet another dirt road with an intersection (P3) where we turn left. This dirt road with the wonderful view to Pelion leads us after 50 minutes of walking again to the asphalt road (P4). We follow it to the point above the beach of Agia Eleni, and moving upwards to the left we reach our starting point.

About 200 meters to the right of the starting point, the chapel of Agia Eleni is located, which we can visit.

The southern beaches of the island are paradise for those who love water sports. You can do whatever you have in mind: water parachuting, water ski, rings, wake board, knee board, parasailing, tubes, extreme rides, sofa rides, wind surfing, canoe kayak, pedal boat and of course diving…

Diving is offered to everyone, from beginners up to certified divers, who can dive in big depth.

Beginners start with the necessary lessons of technique and safety, and continue with diving sessions in shallower waters, always accompanied and supervised by an experienced tutor. Schools offer the necessary equipment and the transfer to the diving spots; therefore you don't need to have anything with you. Diving is really the most interesting of water activities. The animals and plants of the marine kingdom, the reefs and the old shipwrecks will offer you exciting images!

We advise you to try it, and we are certain that you will become lovers of the sport!

Get informed, and let your children play with the donkeys; they will have a particularly good time!

The main commercial street is, of course, Papadiamanti, but there are also other shops in all the alleys that intersect it, which will certainly satisfy you.

OPEN AIR CINEMA Eight years may have passed from the premiere of Mamma Mia, but in "Attikon", the summer cinema of Skiathos, you will have the opportunity to see it again, since the film has contributed significantly to the increase of tourists visiting Skiathos, as several scenes were filmed here. "Attikon" plays three different films every week, so a relaxing two-hour interval under the starry sky is not a bad idea at all.

It is worth passing by the "Karathanos" Jewelry Shop at the old port of Skiathos, and admire, among other things on its shop window, the handmade earrings. They are a collector's piece, an artwork, which was created 25 years ago, and obtained the 1st award in the Pan-Hellenic Exhibition of 1990, and were presented in the front page of the GOLD FASHION magazine.

INCREDIBLE LANDINGS Airplanes approach the runway from the sea, literally flying over the heads of the fanatic viewers of this "attraction" -reminding of Princess Juliana at Saint Martin-, who become more and more every year. Particularly every Friday, the day when most charter flights arrive on the island, it is very crowded. During the take off, the momentum of the exhausts is such that they can carry you away. However, a bunch of "crazy people" defy the airport's warning signs, in order to feel their adrenaline rise!

Ðáôñéäïãíùóßá / Tüðïé ëáôñåßáò 159 Åvangelistria monastery is located at a small distance outside the town of Skiathos into a lush landscape.

It started being built in 1794, and was completed in 1806.

It significantly helped morally and materially with the revolution of 1821. It was there, in 1807, that the first Greek Flag with the white Cross in the middle of a blue background was created.

Among other things, rare icons, manuscripts, gospels of the 18th century, sacred vessels, and other valuable objects, a real holy treasure, are kept in the monastery.

There are three museums: Museum of Sacred Relics, Museum of the Balkan Wars, and Folklore Museum.

During all services the temple is chock full, particularly with young people, culminating during the Holy Week and Easter. In addition, thousands of pilgrims flock on August 15th, a custom that can be found only in some places in Greece. The Monastery of Evangelismos (Annunciation) is a sheltered harbor of mental peacefulness and exaltation in today's restless and anxious world, particularly of our youth.

During the last years, a model vineyard has been created for the manufacture of the famous "Alypiakos wine", which was manufactured many years ago, and which was cited by Alexandros Papadiamantis. Today, the head of the monastery is Archimandrite Iosif Katsouras.

At a small radius around the monastery dozens of small churches and chapels are dispersed.

The only "dweller" of the monastery, protector and guardian angel for the last 35 years is Mrs. Argyro, who serves it from her heart.

The Ikonistria Monastery is located at a distance of 13 km from the town, turning right at the area of Troulos, and passing through an endless pine tree forest.

Virgin Mary "Kounistra" is the patron saint of the island. In 1670 the miraculous holy icon was found here by monk Simeon from Skiathos. According to folk tradition, the icon of Virgin Mary was found hanging from a pine tree and was moving. This is why it was named "Kounistra" (hanging and moving). The icon can be seen in the metropolitan church of Skiathos, and every year on November 21st a big festival is organized. At a small distance the small church of Agios Ioannis Kryfos (1726) with wonderful hagiographies is located. The monastery of Agios Charalambos is 2 km away from the monastery of Evangelistria.

This is where Alexandros Moraitidis lived as a monk during the last years of his life, by the name Andronikos. The monastery of Kechria is located within an idyllic site at the northwestern side of the island, 8 km away from Chora. The monastery's catholic was built in the early of 18th century.

Agios Nikolaos

The Holy Temple of the Three Hierarchs (1846) is the metropolis of Skiathos and it is located at a distance of 50m. above the old port. Almost all the holy relics from the Temples of the Castle are kept there.

The miraculous icon of Virgin Mary of the Icons (Panagia Iconistria), patron saint of the island, is also there. The temple's interior decoration is impressive, with the imposing chandelier dominating in its center.

The Holy Temple of Virgin Mary of the Lake (Panagia Limnia) (1837) is located at the NW of Chora, on a hill and it is distinguished by its imposing bell tower, which is visible from every part of the town. The head of Alexandros Papadiamantis is kept there. In the city, you will also see the Holy Temple of the Holy Trinity (Agia Triada), near Virgin Mary of the Lake and Saint Nicolas (Agios Nikolaos), with its beautiful bell tower, on a hill opposite the port, from where you can enjoy a panoramic view of the city.

More than 70 chapels are scattered around the island, constituting a sample of the deep faith of the inhabitants of Skiathos.

The medieval town of the Castle (Kastro) is the most emblematic point on the island. It is located north of the town and at distance of 10.3km from it. You can come here by car, following the route for the Monastery of Virgin Mary of the Annunciation (Evangelistria), but you can also reach it by the small boats that perform itineraries.

In the middle of the 14th century, the inhabitants of Skiathos built their castle, which enclosed 400 houses and 20 churches, in order to avoid pirate invasions. The Castle remained the capital of the island for 500 years, until 1829, when the Greek state was established, and they returned to today's Chora, where they built the city, the capital of the island.

The history of the Castle The Castle was founded around 1360. Due to piracy, the inhabitants of Skiathos abandoned the byzantine township, which was located where the town of Skiathos is today, and they built the settlement. As the fortress was inaccessible from the sea, and the entrance to it was only accessible through its movable wooden bridge, it ensured relative protection to the inhabitants. The Castle was more a natural stronghold than an artificial fortress. This is why it is surrounded by a weaker wall on the three sides looking over the sea, while on the side where it is united with the land more powerful walls, the gate with the murder-hole and a tower with cannon were built. In the castle, the houses were built stiflingly close to each other, small and dark.

The living conditions of the Castle's in habitants during the 500 years of its existence were fairly difficult. Things got worse with the outbreak of piracy. On the other hand, the "protectors" from time to time, both the Venetians and the Turks, oppressed the inhabitants without providing even minimum security. Some Venetians were so repressive that the inhabitants became so indignant that they decided to surrender the Castle to Hayreddin Barbarossa, murdering the Venetian administrator. But neither with the Turks did things improve. They paid a high polltax annually, while participation in the Turkish fleet was compulsory.

In 1829, the inhabitants of Skiathos abandoned the castle and returned to the old byzantine township, today's town of Skiathos. Before leaving, they removed from the houses all the building materials that could be used again, and this is why the Castle was deserted abruptly. Nowadays, two temples survive, the temple of the Birth of the Christ and Saint Nicolas (Agios Nikolaos), two more have been renovated, those of Saint Basil (Agios Vasilios) and Saint Marina (Agia Marina), the Mosque of the Turkish Command Post, the tank of drinking water at the entrance, and the cistern of rainwater at Christos, the gate with the murder-hole, and walls around the perimeter of the Castle, while the embrasures at the north edge of the peninsula are in good shape.

During your visit, you can see the position where the movable wooden bridge stood, by which the Castle could be accessed from the land, the Gate and the murder-hole, from which they used to throw hot oil to prospective attackers, the Mosque, the cannon with which they responded the enemy ships' fire, the water tank, and the temple of the Birth of the Christ (17th century), which was the main temple of the medieval fortress.

Regarding the other churches, we indicatively mention Saint Nicolas (Agios Nikolaos), a building of the 17th century, Saint Basil (Agios Vasilios) from the 16th or 17th century, which was fundamentally renovated in 1995, Virgin Mary with the Big Eyes (Panagia Megalomata), a deserted building of the 17th century, Saint Marina (Agia Marina), Saints Apostles (Agii Apostoli) of the 17th century, a deserted temple today, Virgin Mary Prekla (Panagia Prekla), an old temple of the Assumption of Virgin Mary (Kimisi Theotokou), which was built around the end of the 16th or at the beginning of the 17th centuries.

The allied forces used the Castle as a starting point for their military operations during the B' World War. The "Lambros Katsonis" submarine sank in the sea region of the Castle in 1943.

Bourtzi is the reference point for every visitor. It is located in front of the town of Skiathos, and is connected by a bridge, dividing the harbor in two parts, the old and the new. The small peninsula with the pine trees and the ruins of the old fortress, which was build in 1207 by the Venetian Gizi brothers, is impressive. The fortress was completely ruined in 1660 by the Venetian admiral F. Morozinis, and today only a few parts of its walls and some of the old canons are saved.

In 1906 the elementary school of the island was built there by

To äùìÜôéï ôïõ ÐáðáäéáìÜíôç The room of Papadiamantis

This is the house where the great Greek writer lived for a big part of his life, and which was built in 1860 by his father, the priest of the island. It is located on a small square, just 80 meters away from the harbor, going upwards at Papadiamanti street, to your right, and it is a representative sample of the popular architecture of Skiathos, with two floors, stone walls, and wooden roof with tiles. The first floor consists of three rooms. Alexandros' room was exactly like a monastery cell with a window, a closet recessed in the wall, and his narrow bed. The personal objects of the writer, his psalter, his ink pot, his pen holder, and some manuscripts are kept in a small wooden show case.

The ground floor was used as storehouse and cellar. Today, it functions as an exhibition room of old and new publications of Papadiamantis. The house was characterized by the Ministry of Culture as a historical protected monument.

The House-Museum welcomes 20,000 visitors every year. The Municipality of Skiathos and the Museum proceed with many events for the projection and the promotion of Papadiamantis' work, while they organize commemoration events and spiritual tributes for the great writer throughout the year. At the same time, the Museum has prepared a two-hour tribute for Alexandros Papadiamantis with words, sound and image, which has been presented in many cities in Greece and abroad, and it will continue to be presented wherever it is invited to participate.

Business hours: 09:30-13:30, & 17:30 - 20:00 expect for Mondays Tel.: +302427023843. Head of Museum: Mrs. Athena Papageorgiou.

This is the location that used to be the house where Alexandros Moraitidis passed the last years of his life, and in which he passed away as monk Andronicus. The contribution of the Cultural Center to the local society is multidimensional. Apart from the social services that is provides, it also offers spiritual and cultural work. This is where events, lectures, day conferences of varying interest etc. take place.

The "Alexandros Moraitidis" Folklore Hall operates in the Cultural Center, which includes a great collection, such as traditional costumes of Skiathos, textiles, agricultural and shipbuilding tools, ancient marbles, amphorae, and high value ecclesiastical objects. The exhibits also include many photographs of the old Skiathos,

In the Monastery of Virgin Mary of the Annunciation (Evangelistria), in a very fine space, the folklore museum operates, in which, among other things, rare icons, manuscripts, gospels of the 18th century, ecclesiastical vessels, and other valuable objects, a really holy treasure, are kept. There, you can find the loom, in which the first Greek Flag with the white cross in the middle was woven on blue background, in 1807. At the same time, you can see the folklore collection of Markos Botsaris, and the collection of ship miniatures, which is impressive.

The occupation of the inhabitants of Skiathos with shipping is directly linked with their lives. Solid hulls, which sailed in the seas of the entire world, were made in the famous shipyards of Saint George (Ai Giorgis). But also as seamen, the inhabitants of Skiathos were the main funders of the island. In 1887, the island's fleet numbered 110 ships and it kept growing until 1930, when the decline begins. The building of most ships was done in Skiathos by worthy shipbuilders and timber from Skiathos. Shipyards were unique. Hulls, enviable even nowadays, tenths of craftsmen working on each of them, and when they were ready, everyone would climb on them, and after the priest's holy water, they would "baptize" the hull, as well as the captain himself!

of the most significant Greek litterateurs, was born in Skiathos on March 3rd 1851. His only inheritance from his poor family was four sisters and two brothers -the firstborn of whom died during early childhood. Being anxious about Education, even though he doesn't have the means to proceed, he finishes school with difficulty, and immediately afterwards he leaves for the Mount Athos, from where he returns, however, a few months later, as he doesn't consider himself worthy for the clergy.

Upon his return, he gets enrolled to the Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Athens but he never graduates. He learns English and French by himself, and makes a living out of private lessons and publishing texts and translations in newspapers.

Solitary and humble, Papadiamantis had formed an Orthodox faith to God within him, a Christian morality and a spiritual perception about life with the Christ, and disdained human vices and weaknesses, avarice and ambitions. His only photograph that is saved, and which he allowed his friend Pavlos Nirvanas to take, is the revelation of his soul and the interpretation of his whole personality, which, as he narrates himself, was "a sacrifice he had made for my friendship", because "he wouldn't, in any way, allow himself such a pagan futility".

He was mostly occupied with novels, where he imprinted the customs and the traditions of his homeland with folk naivety, as well as the rich teachings of Christian life. His novels are descriptive, naturalistic, with intense coloring in the means of expression, and with an idyllic atmosphere. However, there is also an acute psychological description, an apt penetration to the depths of the mental world of his heroes. There are frequent references to the natural environment and the beauties of Skiathos, while his

heroes are simple, everyday people with their weaknesses, their good and bad moments, who suffer and remain silent resignedly, hoping for a better future.

The World Monk of Greek literature had his entire island as a "cell". Through his novels, his fairytales, Skiathos appears as a land of experience of the most solid and powerful tradition of the Greek, or rather Roman, lifestyle, as a land of salvation. This is where he returns to rest, this is where he returns to sleep at the end of his life.

Even though he didn't have the pleasure to see any of his works printed in a book as long as he lived, today, almost a century after his death, Papadiamantis is internationally recognized as the top Greek litterateur, and his works are taught at schools and universities, while he continues to move with the splendor of his writing.

He had an introvert and closed character, and just a few friends. He enjoyed loneliness and seclusion, however he was also passionate. On March 1908, he leaves Athens, and returns to his favorite island. However, his health deteriorates, and on January 3rd 1911 he passes away, bequeathing to us at the same time a literary treasure consisting of 180 novels, poems, studies, and articles.

Having an almost parallel course with his cousin A. Papadiamantis, Alexandros Moraitidis was born in Skiathos in 1850. He begins his education on the island, completes his studies in Athens, and in 1881 he graduates from the Faculty of Philosophy, where he later becomes a Doctor. He served all literary genres.

Similarly to Papadiamantis, he is also dominated by nostalgia for the homeland. His work is permeated by special lyricism, deep religiousness, and love for Skiathos. In 1914, he is honored with the Distinction of Letters and Arts. In 1929, he returns to the island as monk Andronikos.

In October of the same year, he gets sick and dies.

Inhabitants and visitors spend Passion Week with reverence and reflection, in the place where the Athonite Typikon is strictly observed.

On the morning of Holy Thursday, all the faithful people visit church, while immediately afterwards, women start coloring red eggs and kneading Easter bread (tsoureki) and buns. Children go from house to house carrying crosses adorned with flowers and they sing the Easter carols. On Holy Friday, women and children visit the church early in the morning with baskets full of flowers to decorate the Epitaph. On this day of mourning, the locals don't eat anything nor do they shake hands when they meet. The procession of the Epitaph begins at 04:00 in the morning, and the litany passes through all the cobbled paths of the city, while a crier loudly recites psalms. The dawn of Holy Saturday finds the faithful people returning home. After a few hours, they will return to the church for the Liturgy of the First Resurrection. Bells will ring joyfully in order to spread to the entire island the victory of life over death. From midday onwards, all people are devoted to the preparations of the sumptuous meal of Easter Sunday, and make all kinds of delicacies!

This is a ritual that is unique in Greece, and you will be lucky if you attend it!

Archaeological findings at the position of "Kefala" in Skiathos, at the southeastern side of the island, near "Xanemos" bay, at the airport. The fortified area is probably identical with the older of the two towns of Skiathos, "Old Skiathos of the springs" (Paleoskiathos ton pigon). The superficial findings date back from the 10th up to the 5th-4th centuries B.C.

Archaeological findings witness that Skiathos was inhabited since prehistoric years. It enjoyed significant economic prosperity during the 4th century B.C. At the beginning of the 2nd century B.C., the island was destroyed by Phillip V of Macedon, and in 146 B.C. it was occupied by the Romans.

From 1204 to 1276, Skiathos was occupied by the Venetians. A period of Byzantine occupation (1276-1453), and a second period of Venetian occupation (1453-1538) followed. In the middle of the 14th century, when the island was plagued by pirates, the inhabitants of Skiathos abandoned the ancient town and built their Castle at a naturally fortified position. In 1538, Skiathos was subjugated to the Turks. During the Greek Revolution of 1821, the inhabitants fought the Turks with bravery and valence. The creation of the first official Greek Flag in September 1807 at the Monastery of Evangelistria in Skiathos is an event of great historical significance.

T

he inhabitants were poor; some worked in the fields, others cultivated olives and vines -the production was very significant at the time-, and most of them worked as sailors, and these were the ones who brought money to the island. Their way to amuse themselves was to gather in groups after work, discuss and sing. In the old harbor, there were coffee houses, a tavern, a confectionary, and a cinema, where most entertainment outlets are located now‌ The houses were beautiful, low, and had two floors. Unfortunately most of them were destroyed during the war, and others were built from scratch. Papadiamanti Street, the most commercial street of the town, as a dirty brook that inhabitants crossed through four bridges.

The area from the elementary school to the old mill was full of small shipyards, which were called "careenages". There, technicians worked with wood in order to make beautiful ships.

The inhabitants of Skiathos were always loyal to their customs. The weddings were performed at the houses; the priest used to go there to celebrate the mystery, while the groom and the bride, after the ceremony, walked around the entire village, and the orchestra followed.

Tourism began in Skiathos around 1955, mostly with Greeks from the adjacent areas.

The beaches were completely virgin, without any human intervention. “Koukounaries� was the first beach that was visited by tourists, and "Xenia" the first hotel that was built to welcome the high society of the time, even kings from all over Europe.

The biggest change in the form of the town of Skiathos occurred when the new harbor was constructed. Sedimentation works created a new coastal front, by "transposing" the houses some dozens of meters backwards, thus altering the picture of "Little Venice", as they used to call it.

Today, Skiathos may be enjoying the privileges that were granted to it by its tourism development, but it remains very loyal to the tradition and the images of the past.

Besides, this is also witnessed by the many cultural hives, with the Municipality as prime mover, being loudly present.

Literary Placenames of Skiathos Georeferencing the Novels of Alexandros Papadiamantis The aim of this work is to georeference the toponyms of Skiathos which are mentioned in the novels of Alexandros Papadiamantis. Main objectives during this attempt are: a) the cartographic representation of the placenames, b) the placement of marking plates with the placenames, c) the attribution of the cartographic features with literary shortcuts from the novels and d) the publishment of an interactive map on the web. It is expected that the results of this effort will facilitate the documentation and the promotion of the cultural heritage of Skiathos and moreover will be used as an initial reference for the combination of the environmental, social or historical aspects at the study of Papadiamantis work. This project is performed in collaboration with the Cultural Association "Skiathos" and the Society of ‘Papadiamantis Studies’.

As far as primary fire control, we have placed, for fourth consecutive year, in the forest area Mandraki 21 large 'modified' barrels filled with water. (It is worth noting that the barrels were collected by volunteers during the environment, "clean up All Skiathos 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015" weeks). As a result, the Fire Protection Dept. now has over 5 tons of water readily available at all times - and we have given a strong message regarding the re-use, the recycling - of waste materials.

Which are : 1) a good primer, for smooth and flawless coverage 2) a light foundation + concealer, or even better a BB cream with SPF and a concealer 3) a good bronzer or bronzing make up for a bright suntun look 4) mascara and eyeliner, waterproof for those that use then also on the beach and 5) lipsticks and lip glosses that you like. For those that do not like lipsticks, it is necessary to have a lip balm preferably with SPF, to wear all day. And let's not forget our perfume! Travel size or mini perfumes are ideal to carry with, or even branded perfume body lotions.

And of course... In case you forgot something, we are here!
